Franciacorta Rosé

Notes of dried fruit and jam. On the palate, it is soft and fresh. Adapted to every combination, ideal with introductory dishes, fish, white meats and cheeses. 'A handsome Pinot Nero with 36 months on its lees. Although there's plenty of richness from the dark red fruit and earthy layers, it's still hugely refreshing.' 17/20 - 90 Points, Jane Parkinson in Decanter Magazine, February 2014 (2009 vintage)

'100% Pinot, an assemblage with 25% of red wine, made in stainless steel and barrique. Very bold, pomegranate colour, lovely hint of bread character against dry redcurrant and berries, and a delicate smokiness. Lovely palate, with such beautiful rose hip and cranberry, a hint of strawberry, and such a long, harmonious flavour.' 91 Points Tom Cannavan's Wine Pages, April 2014 (2010 vintage)

Barone Pizzini

The Pizzini family arrived in Franciacorta in the 1870's. Since then, the estates have passed through many generations of the same family, until in the 1990's a group of local wine entrepreneurs, bought the estate and started to invest in the business putting people, and the environment first. Organic techniques followed and soon they expanded their horizons by investing and buying new properties in the Maremma Toscana area and in the Marche, Castelli di Jesi. With a full range of wines from three important wine regions of Italy, Barone Pizzini are a dynamic, quality driven group whose wines are enjoying increasing recognition. We are very pleased to be working with more of their wines in the UK this year.
